Originally scheduled to take place last year, the highly-anticipated reunion was enthusiastically attended by nine alumnae, all of whom have stayed in touch since their time as pupils at the school. 

Guests were shown around the new Sixth Form building, Linhope House, by members of the prefect team before enjoying a drinks reception in the School’s Gloucester Room, where they were welcomed by Headmistress, Katharine Woodcock. 

With old photographs and school magazines from their days at Francis Holland, the Class of 1972 enjoyed looking back in time nostalgically to days of old before heading out to dine locally.

Thank you to all who attended, and made the evening so special.
